Recent demonstrations across Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and other cities have been fueled by outrage over the government’s handling of a hostage situation. Protesters are demanding action and a resolution to the crisis.
However, the weekly rallies have been marred by instances of police violence, with one officer even making a heinous threat towards a protester. The disturbing behavior of law enforcement has cast a shadow over the peaceful protests.
Amidst the chaos, a Labor MK has come forward with allegations of assault by officers, despite her parliamentary immunity. This added layer of injustice has only fueled the anger and determination of the demonstrators.
